Arsenal fans confident Chambers will start against Leicester

Plenty of Arsenal fans are adamant Callum Chambers will start when the Gunners face off against Leicester on Saturday.

The 24-year-old was rested by Unai Emery in the 1-1 draw with Vitoria on Wednesday, with Shkodran Mustafi, Rob Holding and Sokratis all featuring in a change of formation.

@LTArsenal shared their expected XI for the fixture against Brendan Rodgers’ side, however, there was no place for Chambers in a 3-4-1-2 formation.

Despite this, these Gunners supporters were quick to reply to the predicted XI, with plenty confident of seeing Chambers in the side come Saturday evening.

Chambers has featured at right-back this season, however, with Hector Bellerin returning to full fitness, the former Southampton man may have to force his way into Emery’s central defensive plans if he wants to keep his starting spot.

If @LTArsenal is right regarding the back three/five, then Chambers could well keep his place in Emery’s first-choice XI as a third centre-back.

It will certainly be an interesting meeting at the King Power, and Emery’s change of formation in the Premier League could be crucial in terms of his Emirates tenure.
